I measured love by any success
it's harder now that you're gone, i must confess

but still, i can't wait for everything
to align itself with me
and give up the sanctity
of the ambience

i don't get it; why must we collect memories
as if we'll gain any sense from their complexities
every little sound i make is questioned and explored
as if there's something to gain from pretending you're bored

but still, i can't wait until today
to realize that it's okay
and give up the holiday
i made up in my brain

i guess it's easy to say that you're what my heart is looking for
i guess it's easy to think now that things have worked out so well

as they say, what goes up must come down
as all things have been justified in the end
don't let that get you down; don't let that suck you under the waves

i guess it's easy to quit when things seem so much easier now
i guess it's easy to laugh when everything is built to collapse on itself

and they'll say "you're not the person i thought i knew!"
as all of us tend to change over time...
well i won't let that get me down
i won't forget the girl i fell in love

it's darker than we'd feared it be
this world wasn't made for you and me...

it's just you and me.

A cheesy but hearfelt little tune about this magical place and why it is I stick around...

Oh and please add bits/yourself to it! Clap your hands, shake your keys, sing along - whatever you feel like!

Lyrics!

I hit record
cos I'm bored
or if I wanna be
more than a piece of dust
before I start to rust
I'm gonna hit record

Again by heart
from the start
I could see
that you were all like me
And you wanted to be free
to share the things that made you happy

There's a kind of synergy
when a brain
and another brain collide
I'm not just me
I'm a cog in the wheel
of a giant family

I wanna make my mark
make a spark
that makes you wanna
make magic, make art
I wanna hit your heart
like cupid with a dart

I hit record
cos I'm bored
or if I wanna be
more than a piece of dust
before I start to rust
I'm gonna hit record (x3)

<3

K inspiration struck and I had to act! A little ditty for the lovely Lula and whoever needs a smile :)

Lyrics if you wanna join in are:

Painty hands I saw a minute
So I emptied what was in it
And wrote a little song for you
Tied a ribbon round the words
And put the words into a verse
I hope you like it, it’s the best that I can do

And if a minute was an hour
And a petal was a flower
Then I’d be all the people I know
To be my friends would be a pleasure
Every buddy is a treasure
And walking in their shoes will help me grow

So this song has just three pieces
No refrains and no releases
A trio of melodic rhymey chunks
It’s a simple little ditty
Let’s get to the nitty gritty
Painty Hands I hope this tune debunks your funks

You know I had to do it rite... You knew I would... Rite

I went vocal on this bad boy. Good rhythms Joe... I added... well alot of stuff.
The vocaltablemental...

kamPaigns music with the voices of tori and Jolynne

tried to get Jolynnes voice to flow over the beat. lots of slicing//

Inspired by the change of Season.

Lyrics: Sunday Afternoon - Lizzie Mackie

Kick off your shoes on a Sunday afternoon.
Winter has left with the sleepy days of June,
Now Summer's coming soon,
So soon.

Summer comes with a different kind of tune,
One that is sung by that man in the moon.
He knows its coming soon,
So soon.

The Flowers get brighter as they sway,
And the birds get louder as they play,
And my Smile gets wider every day.
Just let it stay.
Don't Stray.

I added a few more vocals to Metaphorest Repitition

Re recorded a lil some

After seeing the new video and reading the adorable lyrics to the new song Metaphorest penned for it, I figured I'd give the vocals a shot! I'm not sure if this is even close to the melody it was meant for... but it was fun either way. :)

Feel free to use it or not (I'm sure Metaphorest herself is going to record an awesome track)!

For your aural pleasure.

This is an idea germinated by Metaphorest's "I'm Gonna HitRECord" (thank you). Also known as "Garden Gnomes"...I haven't had much time to write anything too complex, so in the midst of creating the music for a few RECords last night, I wrote this quick little song to thank Joe and everyone here for such a great template for ideas and creation. I've been looking for this site for a long time. I hope it conveys my gratitude to all of you.


Garden Gnomes (ode to hitRECord.org)
every day i collect pictures and sound
and gather them up, mix them, record them
show them off to friends
every second i spend making you smile
makes every second of creating worthwhile

and then we decide what we're gonna do
with the limited minutes we have left

every day i collect smiles and handshakes
and gather them up, mix them, record them

and when we decide what we're gonna do
with the limited minutes we have left

we can then let it all soak in
mix it and record it

OK... WOW, I can't believe I'm about to do this. SO, I couldn't sleep last night, so I found this and was enchanted. I'm not sure what you call what I did. Let's be clear I do not and never have before other than the car... sing, or even played with music like this. So I guess this is just a temp and if I flush out the idea clearly then we find someone in HitRecord That would be a good match for Meta, vocaly. I kinda looked at it like a spokenish wordish thing, because Lawrie is just a ridiculous linguist. So just to be clear of my with myself deprecation and insecurity I had no clue how to harmonize so I didn't even try. I think i thought of it as a dark Row row row your boat( I know mad simple but thats me) there's something magical about the simplicity so this isn't it but there might be a way to keep it raw and simple and play with it. PLEASE any help is welcomed. God I can't believe I'm do this.
Thanks
